Figure 1. Modeled subgroup recovery trajectories.

Scatterplots of subgroup motor impairment scores versus time post-stroke. Impairment scores are in unit standard deviation from the healthy population, where more negative values indicate increasing impairment. Subgroups are named according to the models that best fit their recovery curves. ExpC: patients with slow and impaired recovery (n = 6); Exp: patients with slow and complete recovery (n = 17), and Lin: patients with fast and complete recovery (n = 6). Black solid curves indicate weighted mean recovery trajectories. Dashed line indicates mean of control group performance (z-score = 0).
